Abstract

Techniques for cloud network automation for IP address and DNS record management are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system, process, and/or computer program product for cloud network automation for IP address and DNS record management includes receiving at a cloud platform appliance (e.g., a virtual or physical IP address and/or DNS management appliance) a cloud request related to a resource (e.g., a virtual or physical resource) in a cloud environment from a global cloud manager; and processing the cloud request at the cloud platform appliance to determine whether to proxy the cloud request to another cloud platform appliance or a grid master or to locally process the cloud request, wherein a storage of infrastructure metadata information for IP address and/or DNS record management is updated based on the cloud request.
